    Ages ago you wrote about building a house and more recently you shared you have two meetings with architects later this month. How is everything moving along? Do you already own the property on which you plan on building?

    My wife and I are finishing up (a long process ;) a 1000 sq ft addition to our place on the lake (ok, ok, more like a pond--yes, actually it is a pond but I own it and if I want to call it a lake then I will--and true it is our only place now that I've sold the other one). It has been an incredible process, one which has been completely largely by me (lifting the 2x12x16' 2nd floor joists on a 35 yr old wooden ladder). We used contactors for the roof (27 feet up is a little high for me to drag everything up and down the ladder) and for electric because we are using individual room zone heating and the project was a little big for a do-it-yourselfer (fyi: never grab both halves of a 220v dryer outlet).

    Anyway, if use contractors be sure to get EVERYTHING in writing, including an end date, performance measures, and nut size (lol). FreeAdvice Forums is a good place to read what happens when a contractor goes bad and what not to do.
